Utricularia fulva ‘Rockhole, WA’

Utricularia fulva is a tropical bladderwort native to Australia. The peach flowers with their red speckled palates make D. fulva easy to recognize among bladderwort species. While the foliage looks like nothing more than little bits of grass and the small bladders are hidden underground, the carnivorous traps of Utricularia are some of the most complex structures of all flowering plants.
